I hope I am not under the influence of a mental illness bought on by overwork, but I am under the impression that there is a wedding afoot that is costing £1,200,000 and a society magazine is funding it with a gift of £1,000,000.

If this is true it seems to me that others are suffering from some offensive behavioural illness.

Surely those who have by some flair in life that enables them to amass gigantic amounts of money could find greater satisfaction in spending it in a more civilised and less provocative way?

Do they not have any compassion for those who are denied expensive treatment needed to return them to health? Could they supply the latest medical equipment to hospitals in need?

Alternatively, perhaps finance medical research?

I'm glad that I have not been invited as I am sure many others are too I think we would have felt uncomfortable.
